Slow launch of applications

A

AHR

Clean install of Windows XP Home Edition.

Clicking on a document (e.g. a Word document, or Excel
document) launches the application, but it takes over 30
seconds! Same with clicking on a link from Outlook, or
selecting a document from the Recent Documents submenu of
the Start menu.

Launching an application by clicking on its icon works
fine. Opening a document from within an application
works fine.

Anyone know what's up?
